All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

First off, the employees there are very helpful and elaborate when explaining how the tour works. The views all around were absolutely beautiful, one of my favorite experiences during my Hawaii trip. The kayaking was definitely tiring, even though we only went around the closest nearby reefs and it wasn't a windy day. However, it was really cool to be able to anchor the kayak yourself and decide where you want to go. We were able to see lots of coral (even some new, colorful ones!), schools of fish, and 2 sea turtles! Overall, would definitely recommend this tour to others, and would like to come back one day.

The crew on this ship were kind, funny & kept safety first. The area we were at had many turtles & nice for our family with all levels of experience. We only wished we had more time!

This is a must if you are visiting Oahu. The sandbar is magical place and KBWS makes for a memorable trip. The staff is friendly and the musicians were outstanding. BYOB, snacks and floats! This tour has the perfect mix of activists to choose from or chill on their floating doc / cool water ankle to waist deep pending tide.

Ladder was the only struggle, but I made it! Once in the sub,arine the experience was so cool. Not somethng you can do every day!

I wish the helicopter was first, as it gets cloudy later in the day which makes it harder to see what you are suppose to on the helicopter.

Larger ATV the whole famliy can fit in! We loved the grounds of Kualoa Ranch

Me and my husband who are a bit older felt like this was perfect for us to get to see the water as a diver would!

Full of fun, beautiful views, and fresh air up in the mountains!

Porbably could have seen a bit more if I had more time.

The staff is really friendly! This luau made my families night :)

We had an outstanding experience! The captain and co-captain were friendly and professional. We arrived at the cage and returned to our destination safely. We were fortunate to see a few sharks. I thought I might get seasick but to my surprise I did not. I think it was because my grandson and I ate a bland meal beforehand and do not drink coffee. Unfortunately, two of the passengers did get sick and went palu in the cage! Auwe! Overall a great experience and we'd do it again.

It seems to be a popular activity, and even with a reservation made two weeks in advance, I couldn't get a morning start and had to book for after 1 PM. On the way to the location from the meeting point, there was heavy rain. By the time we arrived, it was just light rain. Luckily, the rain stopped before we departed.

Around lunchtime, there was a long line for ordering food, and I was worried about making it in time for my scheduled participation. It was the right decision to line up quickly after arriving. Before departure, we received a briefing and had our licenses checked. A Japanese driver's license is acceptable; an international driver's license is not necessary.

Finally, we set off. I had to chase after the car in front of me on the bumpy road, gripping the steering wheel tightly, which was tiring. I didn't feel much of a sense of exhilaration. At a rest stop along the way, there was an explanation related to movie shooting scenes, but I had only seen Jurassic Park and was completely lost.

It could have been a hassle if it had rained, but since the rain had stopped, there was little mud splatter and hardly any dirt. The leader at the front and the cheerful woman at the back were both very experienced. They talked a lot, but their fast pace made it hard to understand—about one-third of what they said. By the way, I have a TOEIC score of over 800.

The return bus time was predetermined, and we had to wait for about two hours. There were no souvenirs I wanted, so I just waited. It seemed that many people had come by car. I overheard a participant in the horseback riding course say, "I didn't think it would be this much fun" (in Japanese), which made me slightly regret not choosing that option.

人気があるアクティビティのようで、2週間前の予約でも午前スタートは取れず、午後13時過ぎの予約に。
集合場所から現地に向かう途中に激しい雨。到着時は小雨程度。出発時は雨が上がりラッキー。
お昼前後は昼食注文の長蛇の列で参加時刻に間に合うか、気を揉んだ。到着後、速やかに並ぶのが正解。
出発前に事前説明を受け、免許証の確認。日本の免許証でOK。国際免許証は不要。
いざ出発。前の車に後れないようにでこぼこ道を懸命に追いかける。ハンドルを目一杯握るので疲れる。爽快感はさほど感じなかった。
途中の休憩スポットで映画の撮影シーンと絡めた説明があるが、ジュラシックパーク以外は観ておらず、チンプンカンプン。
雨が降っていたら大変だったかも。雨が上がっていたので、泥ハネ少なく殆ど汚れなし。
先頭のリーダーと最後を見守るのは経験十分な陽気な女性二人。沢山喋ってくれるが早口で理解度1／3。因みに当方はTOEIC800以上。
帰りのバス時刻は予め指定されており、待つこと2時間ほど。欲しい土産物もなくただ待つのみ。乗用車で来た人が多いようです。
乗馬コース参加者が、「こんなに楽しいとは思わなかった」（日本語）と言っているのを小耳にはさんだので、「そちらにするんだった」とやや後悔。

I participated in the morning session. The sea was emerald green and very beautiful! I was surprised at how deep and cold it was at first. I tried kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding for the first time, and it was really fun. Although I couldn't see the sandy beach due to timing, I had a great time overall.

午前中の部に参加しました。
海はエメラルドグリーンでとても綺麗でした！思ったよりも深くて冷たくて最初驚きました。カヤックやSUP？を初めてしましたが、とても面白かったです。サンドバーとはいえ、時間的に砂浜の箇所は見れませんでしたが、満喫できました。

The live music was really good, everyone was super friendly and everything was very organized and clean.

Captain and her team was awesome! Loved the experience, it’s mainly luck if you wanna see a lot of marine life but the experience itself was so cool! We went with a total of 14 people in my group

I put on the lei, took a confirmation photo, and they also took a photo with our smartphone. When I was asked about transportation to the hotel and mentioned a taxi, they guided me to the taxi stand. The staff was very kind. Thank you very much.

レイをかけ、確認の写真を撮り、私たちのスマホでも写真を撮っていただきました。ホテルまでの交通手段を聞かれ、タクシーとわかると、乗り場まで案内してくれました。親切なスタッフさんでした。ありがとうございました。

I would recommend the tour to everyone great view of the city at night.

All around great experience.
Had musicians on the boat that really put on a show on the way to and from the the water activities.
Great host that truly made the experience better.
Bumper tubes was fun, our driver definitely gave us a run for our money !
Worth every penny

This is great way to see all the sites at Pearl Harbor in a cost effective and easy way. No problems going between each site. Thank you so much .

We were a large group made up of first timers, young ones and experienced parasailers and had a great time. We initially experienced mechanical issues and had to scrap our excursion but were able to reschedule for the next day. The ride, commentary and overall experience was memorable, enjoyable and such a great time! Highly recommend, we will be back for sure. Thank you!!!

I experienced this three years ago and had so much fun that I decided to try it again. There were no single-person buggies available, only the six-person ones, but I still enjoyed the long journey with the beautiful scenery and thrills. The staff seemed to be making an effort to entertain us. As expected, there were few Japanese people, so a certain level of language skills was necessary! I relied on Pocketalk. I would love to go again if single-person buggies are available again.

3年前に体験して凄く楽しかったので再びチャレンジ　1人用のバギーはなくて6人乗りのみでしたが、それでも長い長い道のりで景色やスリルが楽しめました。スタッフさんも楽しませようと頑張っている感じでした　さすがに日本人は少なくある程度の語学力が必要でした！私はポケトークのお世話になりました。　　又1人用バギーが再開されたら行きたいですね

First, want to acknowledge our awesome tour guide. His name was Garfield. This guy was full of information and his instructions were spot on. I have so much to say about this day. To me it was a little overwhelming all that we saw in such a short time. Between the Bowfin submarine tour, it's museum, the USS Arizona Memorial was spectacular and awe inspiring. The aviation museum was my favorite since I am an aviation buff. All the planes in various states of repair and some that were riddled with bullet holes was incredible. The Battleship Missouri was quite a sight to see. I wish I returned to spend more time to explore. This day was full of sights and emotion. Worth the price of admission for sure. Thank you again Garfield.

Well, we didn't start off on time due to an unavoidable traffic issue. Once Juicy showed up the trip began and he kept us rolling in the aisles with funny stories and excellent information about the sights. Did I mention that Juicy made up for arriving late? Each stop was awesome and he went out of his way to make it just that much more special. The lunch was some yet delicious. I feel bad because I actually forgot his real name. The only name we got familiar with was Juicy. What a sweet and funny man. I really connected with him. Glad we took this tour.

Vibe was great, music was awesome. They had live music on our trip to the location and played music while we played in the water. It was the best activity we booked on our trip. We enjoyed paddle boarding the best. But just hanging out in the middle of the ocean was so much fun. Would definitely recommend. I didn't book the extra activities and still had a great time. Don't forget to bring your reef safe sunscreen. The crew was great and very helpful.

The overall experience was amazing. It was the best part about our trip. The scenery is breathtaking. The best part was snorkeling in a hole that was bombed in 1942. When we snorkeled in the bomb hole we seen a couple turtles and other sea life. The only thing that I didn’t care for was that it is a workout to come back. I thought it was gonna be easy to kayak the way back but it was exhausting. So I would say give yourself some time to come back especially if you have young children because you will sweat.

The views were worth it. Didn’t really like the food. Opt out of photo as you will have time to go around the ship and take your own photos free of charge.

My family enjoyed this tour. All staff are very nice and helpful. Elvin helped my 8-year old son in kayaking. The gentleman at snorkeling helped me when I couldn’t swim back to the boat. The bus driver was very nice too. Oh the staffs on the boat are all friendly. Thank you all for the wonderful experience.

We had a fantastic time the staff was very friendly it was a well organized Excursion. They had all the toys to play with on the sandbar and it was safe and was a good time even in the rain. We’d love to go again but on a sunny day.

What an enjoyable evening! Beautiful view, nice cuts of meat prepared deliciously, fun entertainment and we met some wonderful people. What a small world, met some folks from a nearby city back home. Strongly encourage you to book a special night- no regrets!

It was my first time back in Hawaii in three years, and my first time participating in this cruise in three years as well. The weather was probably the best I've ever experienced. The ocean seemed to be clearer than before. Wearing masks is optional. If you're concerned, it might be a good idea to bring your own mask and snorkel. Prices have gone up compared to before, but the easy snorkeling off Waikiki and the enjoyable cruising experience are worth it.

３年ぶりのハワイ、３年ぶりのこのクルーズへの参加でした。今までで多分１番のお天気。海がキレイになったような気がします。マスク着用は自由です。気になる方はマイマスク、シュノーケル持参がいいかもしれません。以前と比べて値上がっていますが、ワイキキ沖でのお手軽シュノーケル、気持ちいいクルージングは価値ありです。
